Season 9

Episodes

Tucson: Gateway to Sonora
In Tucson, Pati learns the basics of artisan bread-making from one of America's best bakers, Don Guerra of Barrio Bakery. This experience prompts her to cross into Sonora, Mexico, to see where the Sonoran wheat he uses originates. Pati takes what she learned back to her kitchen to create a menu of tasty recipes using wheat flour.

Hermosillo Food Crawl
Pati spends a day in Sonora's capital, Hermosillo, visiting some of the city's best culinary destinations. From gigantic burritos at Doña Guille, to a meat lover's feast with the owner of the popular restaurant Mochomos, mingling with the young crowd at La Ruina brew park, and a treat no trip would be complete without, Sonoran hot dogs, Pati experiences the full spectrum of the Hermosillo's food scene.

The Blessing and the Benefit
Pati experiences two important Sonoran culinary traditions. First, on the coast in Bahía Kino, local fishermen receive "the blessing" from a woman from the Seri tribe before heading out on the water to catch giant sea scallops. Then, in the mountain town of Matape, Nere, one of Sonora's few female butchers, shares with Pati a tradition called "The Benefit" and how she helps feed the the community.

Carne Asada with La Familia
Pati spends some time with her boys cooking up a classic Sonoran-style meal. First, she teaches them the basics of a true Sonoran tradition — carne asada. Then, for dessert, a whipped peanut buttercream and grape galette.

Flour Power
Wheat and meat are two staples of Sonoran cuisine, and Pati shows her take on a classic recipe that uses both, a carne con chile burrito. In Sonora, she tours one of Hermosillo's oldest flour mills and gets a lesson on making coyotas, a traditional dessert, at a local bakery. Then, Pati shows us how to make coyotas at home.

Sonoran Family Favorites for Sami
Pati spends a day in the kitchen with her middle son, Sami, cooking recipes inspired by her travels in Sonora that she knows he'll love. In Sonora, Pati sees firsthand how the family bond can be the secret to delicious recipes at a famous family run street food stand, Johnny's Tacos in Hermosillo.

Legends of the Sonoran Sea
Pati travels to Sonora's coast on the Sea of Cortez, where local legend Toño Contreras gives her a tour including shellfish on the beach, his restaurant Mariscos El Rey, and his home kitchen for some crave-worthy recipes. This inspires Pati to make seafood-loaded recipes at home.

Super Sonoran
Pati makes three classic Sonoran recipes, each one a meal in itself — a fish special called pescado zarandeado, a rich stew called gallina pinta, and a tasty dirty rice with clams. In Sonora, she visits vacation destination Puerto Peñasco, where some of the town's best chefs take her to the local market and invite her for a feast of their favorite recipes from the region.

Cooking for My Crew in Sonora
As Pati travels with her TV production crew through Mexico's vast state of Sonora, she gets inspired by the bold flavors and ingredients. They stop at a beautiful hacienda outside of Hermosillo, where Pati prepares her take on a true Sonoran feast in a rustic outdoor kitchen. As a thank you, this meal is for the crew.

Sabores Norteños
Pati is inspired by Sonora's "northern flavors" where the hot, arid desert lends itself to hearty and surprising recipes. She makes traditional tamales with corn, chiles, and cheese, and then for the main course, pork chops topped with a pickled grape salad. In Sonora, she visits a traditional hacienda, where she gets a true taste of Sonoran ranch food.
